Comedian Eddie Izzard in the Let's Stay Together video

A NEW video campaign starring pro-Union celebrities has been launched to encourage people in the UK to have a say in Scotland's independence referendum.

The film, which is called Let's Stay Together - 'Scotland, you're my best friend', features Scots Doctor Who and Torchwood star John Barrowman, EastEnders actor Ross Kemp, comedian Eddie Izzard and former Wales international footballer Iain Rush.

Other household names urging Scots to reject independence include campaigner Doreen Lawrence, the mother of murdered teenager Stephen Lawrence and One Foot In The Grave actor Richard Wilson.

Campaign organisers said the views of people in England, Wales and Northern Ireland have largely gone unheard in the debate and the video will "show Scotland that we do care".
